Being at odds with those we love is heart rending. When there is a separation, reconciliation may take much effort. This is why we need to guard the love and trust in our relationships. Protect them as the precious commodity they truly are?
To David, it seemed the worst thing he could imagine was being separated from God. (Ps. 51:11) It is sin that causes that separation. But God has provided what is necessary to bring about reconciliation.
Paul stated. . .
“(10) For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. (11) More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” (Romans 5:10-11 ESV)
Praise God for both His desire and His power to bring us back into a precious relationship with Him. He seeks to provide the lasting kind.
Have a great day CHERISHING YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD!
